happy looking back

He grabbed Grandpa's trousers, and clawed at him like a koala.

"Skin monkey! Don't be afraid of being laughed at!" Grandpa bent down and hugged me.I put my arms around grandpa's neck and proudly despised Li Xiqing, boy!With the captain's grandfather covering him, it doesn't matter if you say you will go to hell.

"That classmate, what are you doing standing there?" Grandpa always had a stern tone when speaking to people, making people feel that he was rigid and serious, but he was kind to me.Today, for the first time, I slowed down and softened my tone, which made me curiously follow Grandpa's gaze and see a young man standing timidly in the corner behind the courtyard gate.The appearance is ordinary, the skin is somewhat sickly pale, and the body is thinner than those of the same age.

Seeing all the people in the yard looking at him, the young man's pale face turned red, and he moved towards the wall somewhat at a loss.

"Baby, go and ask big brother to sit down and have a bowl of porridge." Dad brought out a pot of fragrant porridge from the kitchen and put it on the stone table.Seeing the cowardly young man in the corner, like a lost lamb, he said to me with some embarrassment.

"Boy! My dad is calling you to eat!" I slid off my grandfather's lap and ran to the timid young man and said.His mind was all on breakfast, and he didn't notice that the people behind him suddenly stiffened on the spot.

"Pfft!" Kong Xiayan covered her mouth and laughed very hard.I suddenly remembered that the group of relatives and friends behind me was not Zhang Dazhu and You Dan.Turning his head in a daze, nodding and bowing, looking at his grandpa's darkened face with flattery, he said softly, "Come again~~~"

"Pfft!" Why are you joining in the fun!Angrily glared at the smiling Li Xiqing.

"Brother! What's your name?" Biting a little finger, he looked up at the silly young man in front of him, his big eyes were full of curiosity and innocence.

"I——my name is Wang Xiong." I sighed in my heart: Did you see that!It doesn't matter if you call him a male, the more you call, the more you will become a bear.The pain of sympathizing with each other made me look at the cowardly young man with a little more sympathy and regret.

"Have you had breakfast?" The thoughtful question made the eyes of the seventeen or eighteen-year-old in front of him turn red, and he shook his head embarrassingly.

"Then let's go eat together." I stretched out my small hand and took the shy young man to sit on the stone chair in the courtyard.Feeling the coldness and wetness of the palm, the last bit of playfulness is gone: this person is really inferior and cowardly.But people are not born with the feeling that they are inferior to others. It is the reality of society that makes them make such a self-identification.Hey~~~, another man with a story.

"Mr. Ge, let's go back first. This time, we mainly want to ask what production tasks we have." Shi Lei saw his father take out a stack of sea bowls to serve porridge one by one, and knew that this was to treat them to breakfast. Embarrassed, he quickly stood up.

"It's not a rare food, you can eat whatever we eat." Father grabbed Shi Lei and pushed him onto a chair, then picked up the bowl and stuffed it into his hand, "Everyone, eat quickly! I'll go to work later, I'm hungry Don't be tired." Seeing that none of the young people around was serving the bowl, the father joked in a playful tone, trying to eliminate the awkward atmosphere.

"There are still two baskets of steamed stuffed buns, wait." Li Xiqing picked up the bowl and took a sip, her frowning eyebrows gradually relaxed, and she took another mouthful of porridge.Someone took the lead, and Shi Lei and the others lost their embarrassment at the beginning, and everyone picked up the bowls in their hands and started eating.With a smile on his face, his father went into the kitchen and came out with two drawers of steaming steamer.

"Brother Ge, what is this porridge made of? It's really delicious." Shi Lei took a big sip, feeling that the porridge is still the same but with a little more fragrance and sweetness.

"The baby has a tricky mouth, and his stomach and intestines were not digested well when he was a child, so some jujube paste and rock sugar were put in the porridge." This is a nutritious meal invented by his father and has been continuously improved. It has been followed until today. Of course, the taste is not bad.

"Come on! Eat more steamed stuffed buns for the bottom, so you won't be hungry after working too much." My father picked up an unused chopstick, and each of them picked up a yellow steamed stuffed bun and put it into a bowl.

"Hey! There are fillings! No wonder they are called steamed stuffed buns, and they are also stuffed with shepherd's purse." Although there is no meat, it has a different fragrance, which makes people feel appetizing.Shi Lei stuffed it into his mouth, and said in a puffy voice.

"Don't take such a big bite. Corn flour is a coarse grain. If you don't chew it slowly, you will choke." Father put a plate of pickled cucumbers on the table, and sat down to eat.

"How did Brother Ge come up with the idea of ​​making this steamed stuffed bun?" Shi Lei looked at his father in admiration, his eyes a little sore.

"Baby refuses to eat whole grains, thinking it is tasteless and has a rough taste, but how can there be so much white noodles to eat these days." Father said, not forgetting to tap my forehead lightly with chopsticks.

"Brother Ge is a good father~~~" Shi Lei choked up as he spoke, his face was pressed down, and his expression couldn't be seen, but from his trembling shoulders and red ears, his father didn't say anything.

"Is it to your liking?" Seeing Shi Lei's emotional state, the other educated youths felt the same way.But Li Xiqing still ate the food in his mouth with an indifferent face, his movements were graceful and unhurried, as if he was eating some delicious food.

"It's very vegetarian, but the taste is good." Li Xiqing swallowed the last mouthful of steamed bread, and wiped the corners of her mouth with the white handkerchief in her pocket.Other people's behavior will definitely make the host feel unhappy, but Li Xiqing's behavior makes people feel that it should be so.So the young father doesn't know what elegance is, but he also knows that this young man is different.

18. Losing power and humiliating the country...

"What are you two little devils doing sneaking around there?" The father, who had just finished breakfast and cleared the table, looked outside the courtyard door and shouted, "Come in soon."

"Morning, Uncle Ge!" Zhang Dazhu and You Dan moved in the door in silence, with their heads lowered. Usually their voices can shake the sky, but today they are as weak as mosquitoes and flies.Zhang Dazhu's left ear was a little red and swollen, and You Dan was walking with his butt pouted. It can be imagined that the disaster was severe.

"What's the matter? Someone bullied you?" the father jokingly said. Only parents brought their children to their house, and I have never seen a child who dared to bully these two rogue monkeys.

"What's the matter?! Did you get stabbed home by Uncle Qin?" I hurried over, and the three of them formed a group and asked in a low voice.

"That's not it! Could it be that little boy who complained and wanted to please both sides?" Zhang Dazhu narrowed his eyes with confidence, thinking where he would have a better chance of winning with a sack.

"From the very beginning, I felt that vixens were unreliable." You Dan looked heartbroken that he had been deceived.

"I don't think it might be this kid who did it." I couldn't guarantee it before yesterday, but seeing the demeanor of this cold-faced kid today, he is a character, and he shouldn't be as familiar as the three of us.Of course, you can't say enough, if you can't guarantee it, you will meet a guy who is very serious, has only the nose of a needle, and is super greedy.

"Why?" Zhang Dazhu and You Dan looked at me together.

"The whole Xiaohe Village can do such a shocking event, even without the need for reasoning, analysis and elimination. I guess it must be the two of you." I stared at the two proudly in front of me with wide eyes.

"Well, baby, don't always say things that I don't understand. What is reasoning and analysis, what is elimination." Zhang Dazhu was stunned by the sentence before me, but he didn't understand the meaning of the sentence after that.

"You two will go to school in a few days, you have to study hard and make progress every day!" Seeing the two bitter and bitter faces, I said bitterly out of the great sense of responsibility of a people's teacher, "If you don't study hard, I worry that sooner or later the gap between us will grow further and further."

"What gap?" You Dan looked nervous.

"Ideological enlightenment!" I pointed to my head.Zhang Dazhu and You Dan looked at each other with puzzled faces. Although they didn't understand the difference between these ideas, but when they thought of 'getting farther and farther away', these two brats felt like being left behind for the first time. The sense of crisis behind.

"Ah! You are peeping here!" Feeling the shadow on the top of my head, I turned my head suddenly and saw Li Xiqing's smirking face. I was so angry that I trembled all over and pointed at Li Xiqing's high nose bridge, and roared furiously. .

"I'm just passing by." Li Xiqing pointed to Wang Lei and others who were walking past, and I was relieved: it turned out that I was going to work.

"Why is he here!" You Dan exclaimed, his dark eyes seemed to spew out fire, fixedly staring at Li Xiqing who was still indifferent in front of him.

"He wants to please everyone!" Zhang Dazhu deeply despised the behavior of making small reports and asking for cheap everywhere.

"What's so nice?" The father who was carrying the sickle was the last to walk out of the courtyard gate, and when he saw the three at the end of our crane, he joked with a gentle face.

"Oh! It was last night—" Li Xiqing's indifferent tone carried a little unsatisfactory uplift, which made the father on the side look at him curiously.

"Ah!" I anxiously interrupted Li Xiqing's shameless behavior, and instinctively let out a scream.The effect was ideal, and the four of them stared at me nervously.

"The foot hurts!" Jizhong Shengzhi quickly knelt down and hugged his kneecap, looking at his father with aggrieved eyes.

"Lazy again—" my father looked at me dumbfounded, and as he spoke, he wanted to step forward and pick me up from the ground.

"Let me come!" Li Xiqing stepped forward and lifted me into her arms, and her buttocks just sat on this guy's arms. adapt.He was three centimeters taller than my father, and the shaking ground made me dizzy for a moment. I hugged Li Xiqing's neck nervously.

"
